Chapter 098 - 22% Power Saving (Three More Requests for Subscriptions and Monthly Passes)
There is a reason why Yang Yun decided to decentralize.
The R&D department has always been under his command, doing whatever he says, and now he is trying to decentralize the power, and each department decides what games to develop, and then makes an application report, and after the department approves it, it will be handed over to him for review.
In doing so, the programmer's creativity can be stimulated to the maximum, rather than waiting for him to be fed.
Creativity is a precious asset, when people lose creativity, even if they work hard and are passionate, it can only be boiled down to being a diligent coding machine, in the words of later generations, it is a code worker.
When Yang Yun and Sega engineers rushed to work on the Contra game, they could see the difference between Chinese and Japanese developers, and they were deeply touched.
Every time he says a scene, a Japanese professional artist can quickly draw it and then hand it over to the programmer to realize, and every time he says an action and a weapon, the Japanese programmer can quickly think of more things, and generate more personalized ideas under his prompting.
Perhaps because of the constraints of national conditions, Chinese children are suppressed by heavy academics, imprisoned by high-pressure education methods, and forced by cruel competition to become a situation where scores are paramount, so it is difficult to see that kind of rich creativity and imagination among Chinese programmers.
But Yang Yun doesn't want to go on like this, he must change this situation, because intellectually, the Chinese are no worse than anyone else, and the Chinese are the most diligent people on the shijie, as long as Yang Yun gives enough space, the Chinese will definitely be able to create a classic game.
So Yang Yun called Zhang Guoqiang, handed over all the independent development rights to him, and said: "I will hand over the home TV game department to you." Allowing you to play freely, you have to go more to Nintendo. Konami, Capcom. Do you have the guts to fight these companies when they learn how to grasp the essence of the business game and then make classic games and beat them in the market? β
Zhang Guoqiang puffed up his chest and said loudly: "Yes! I know that only by pushing myself to a dead end like Team Leader Fang can I stimulate my greatest potential! β
Yang Yun's eyes lit up, and he was ecstatic: "The power-saving jishu in the Near East has succeeded?" β
If you want the handheld to run for a long time, you either need to expand the capacity of the battery. Either reduce the energy consumption of the console.
Yang Yun thought that when he was a child when he was in school, Gao Fushuai's tablemate brought GameBoy to the classroom to play Tetris and Super Mario.
When Gao Fushuai ran out of power, he took off the Duracell rechargeable battery and took it to the podium to charge, at this time Yang Yun's opportunity came, and he cautiously proposed to play with it, and Zuihou held an empty machine. Nima also had to pay for the battery herself.
Yang Yun can't afford rechargeable batteries, he can't afford Duracell, so he can only use domestic three or five to make do with it for a while. Look at the remaining power grid, and then reluctantly return the machine, and of course the battery is embarrassed to pull out again. If you are looking for someone to borrow a machine, you have to express it.
I think of those green years. Yang Yun sighed for a while, so he was particularly sensitive to the matter of handheld power endurance.
Playing and playing with the power is out. At this time, I am depressed and want to kill, and the development speed of the handheld is too fast, the more to the back, the higher the machine configuration, the better the performance, the more complex the game, when the capacity of the dry battery reaches the bottleneck, how to reduce energy consumption becomes particularly important!
In the Longteng laboratory, Yang Yun stared at the data on the computer screen, next to a group of open circuit board equipment, on which a number of small plug-ins of CNC circuits were inserted, and the numbers on the professional voltage monitoring instruments were constantly flashing.
"Voltage drop plot...... Nonlinear Attenuation ...... Trend chart of long-term operation energy consumption of substrate...... Nima's Lao Tzu can't understand it...... "Yang Yun was embarrassed, but the final result was still very clear, at least 20% stronger than the data a month ago!"
Fang Jindong lost ten pounds, this Northeast man took the initiative to issue a military order, and the man's blood made him die in the laboratory.
He flew back to Bingcheng Hagong Machine Tool Factory at his own expense, bought international professional journals and teaching materials at his own expense, and did not even go back to the staff dormitory in the backyard of the Longteng Building to sleep in the Chinese New Year's Eve.
On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Fang Jindong's wife took the child to the laboratory with dumplings in person, and saw that in addition to him working overtime, there were more than 20 other project team people rushing to the project, and his heart couldn't help but be sour, turned his head and left, and cooked all the 300 dumplings and sent them over, everyone was moved to red eyes, ate dumplings with tears, and then continued to work, and kept watch in the laboratory on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Relying on this fighting spirit, Fang Jindong finally used two sets of optimized combinations of software and hardware to innovatively design the "three-bridge intelligent circuit board", and formulated an optimization scheme for the game code, which reduced the power consumption by 22% and exceeded Yang Yun's requirements.
Yang Yun held Fang Jindong's hand, full of emotion, even though there were a thousand words, the words came to his mouth, but he couldn't say them.
"Kinto, I'm sorry, I was the one who said something heavy that day......"
"Mr. Yang, I didn't embarrass the Northeast gentlemen! My spit is a nail, and I will do what I say! As long as you need it, our Near East is willing to lead the military writ again and continue to tackle key problems! β
Fang Jindong was particularly stiff, stood up straight, and proudly accepted Yang Yun's test.
Like him, there are several people who participated in the project, including hardware engineers from Chiyang Electronics Factory, and leaders recruited from all over the country, all of whom looked at Yang Yun proudly.
Yang Yun was so excited that he said loudly: "Your spit is a nail, and I, Yang Yun, am not a cowardice who is untrustworthy!" 50,000 yuan bonus, you go to Huimin, send it now! β
"Great! Long live Mr. Yang! β
"Team Leader Fang is mighty! Mr. Yang is domineering! β
The team members shouted happily, which was the leader's most positive affirmation of their hard work, and the sound passed through the wall, making the engineers of the next group envious, and then secretly reminded themselves that they should learn from others to work hard, and everyone cheered up to work.
In addition, Yang Yun has another idea for Fang Jindong, who has contributed the most.
This patent was completed in the course of completing the public relations task of Longteng Laboratory, which is called a service invention in a legal sense, and the ownership of the patent belongs to Longteng Company, which needs to be appropriately rewarded by the other party, Near East.
For this reward, Yang Yun is ready to give a one-time payment, rather than the percentage of derivative benefits brought by this patent.
So Yang Yun privately called Fang Jindong aside and said, "Jindong, these 50,000 are your components, I personally want to reward you a little more." 1 million, or a big house in the capital, you choose one! β
β100β¦β¦ Ten thousand? Fang Jindong was frightened, his monthly salary was 2,000, 20,004 a year, and it took 40 years to earn 1 million, this figure is simply astronomical!
"Mr. Yang, don't! You're so scary, I think it's too much to give me 10,000 yuan! β
What an honest man! Yang Yun sighed that if he knew that GameGear would sell 100 million units because of the power-saving patent, I am afraid he would not feel that 1 million yuan was a lot.
Yang Yun didn't allow him to refuse, if you don't want money, then give you a big house in the capital! Buy it in the 2nd Ring Road! 200 square meters start! After 20 years, when it's time to demolish, hum, you'll know my good!
As soon as the matter of power-saving jishu was settled, Yang Yun's mind came alive.
GameGear's biggest flaw is in the power,Fang Jindong's patent,Need to redesign the circuit direction of the substrate,And the supporting software should be optimized to optimize the game code,Minimize the computing power of the CPU,This is a system engineering,It's not to say take out a small black box,Install it to save powerγ
So the software for Pokemon had to be mastered by itself, and the GameGear motherboard had to be produced at the Dragon Factory.
There's also a big problem, the display!
If you don't get this Taiwanese crystal technology company's LED display jishu,GameGear is impossible to install this kind of screen,Just have a power-saving patent,4 and a half hours of battery life can only be increased to5 and a half hours,Compared with GameBoy,It's still a lot worseγ
If GameGear changes the color screen to black and white, the electricity can indeed be saved, but how can Pokemon still play? Pikachu is black, Charizard is black, and frog seeds are ......
Will this still keep the kids entertained?
So Yang Yun decided that he had to take down the jishu of the display screen, so he came to the Press and Publication Administration and had to continue to ask Zhu Shuguang.
Xiangshang-level instructions are skillful.
Yang Yun first reported the recent situation and told the things that the superior leaders were most concerned about.
"The design of the Dragon version of the Three Kingdoms has entered the final stage, and it is estimated that there will be more than a month to complete. The manuscript of the book "Yi Zhong Tianpin Three Kingdoms", which is ready to be jointly launched, has been sorted out, and it is waiting for the review and approval of the CIP book publication batch number. As for the relevant cooperative publishing houses, I don't know if Director Zhu has any recommendations? β
Although Zhu Shuguang does not directly lead the publishing house, he is in charge of all the books in the world, and he asks the publishing house to go to the left, and the publishing house will never dare to look to the right.
Publishing "Yi Zhong Tianpin Three Kingdoms", this is a novelty, there has never been a historical interpretation book of this type in China, and it is bundled with the game industry to promote, looking at the Jiashi of Longteng Company, it is estimated that it will be a hot mess.
Therefore, Zhu Shuguang's decision is very valuable, and he must weigh whether to hand it over to the People's Education Press, Tsinghua University Press, or a local publishing house?
There are too many interests involved, and Zhu Shuguang can't decide alone, so he said: "Wait until we discuss and discuss." (To be continued......)
